If you prove to him that you possess these characteristics as well as the ability to make quick decisions and push your limits, maybe, just maybe, you will be allowed to join his attack fleet against the Federation Using a bridge captain perspective, you participate in some simulator missions and then real encounters with many variations of enemy ships, mainly Federation vessels.

As the ships captain, you command every station on the ship at a whim.

Forty new ships await destruction because they have either betrayed or are enemies of the Klingon empire.

Races in the game include those of the Federation, Romulan, Tholian, Gorin and Sha Kurian, a new race in the Star Trek universe.

Each of the ships has detailed schematics and weapon systems as well as new technologies like the Tholian power-web.

Battles take place in a range of areas such as the corona of a star where things really start to get hot Perhaps youll use the cover of a planet to elude your enemies or maybe use a black hole for cover and have to deal with its insane physics and gravity.

And should you enter an asteroid belt, youll learn the true meaning of rock and roll When battling in these areas, youll see the glory of your weapons tearing through an enemy ship.

You can rip off the hull or hit the warp-drive causing plasma to leak heavily from the ships aft region.

Since the story is a continuation of that from the movie Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, youll see Christopher Plummer reprise his roll as General Chang and David Warner as Chancellor Gorkon.

To issue orders to my crew, I had to use the VOS, which stands for verbal order system.

There is nothing verbal about this verbal order system Nine menus line the bottom of the screen with headings like Engineer, Helm, Comm, and Science.

Wait, this sounds like a Federation starship, doesnt it So to issue a verbal command, the player has to press a corresponding number key, which brings up a menu, like 2 for Helm.

Then a series of choices faces the captain, like Warp Out-System, Warp In-System, Warp to Target, Impulse, and a couple of others.

So those take another number key.

And so on. And so on.

To warp somewhere, the captain presses four keys in sequence.

I thought I was a captain, for god sakes Thats what the crew is for I saw one joystick once in one Star Trek movie.

Guess which one and who was the pilot and win a tribble (answer below, but dont expect that tribble) I dont believe joysticks are standard issue in the Federation or the Klingon Empire.

Pressing keys, issuing commands, flying the ship, shooting the weapons is nearly impossible.

Whose crinkly cranium do I need to bash to get some help around here Never has the captain had to do so much.

While voice-recognition isnt quite right for dictating the great American novel or even a decent review, why cant it be used for words like shields, all ahead full, cloak, or other Star Trek universe vernacular Suspend your disbelief that the game isnt quite accurate-or as accurate as some game can be to a fictional universe-and the game can be fun, but extremely challenging.

Beside the incredibly obtuse VOS, the Cadet Handbook for Klingon U is 288 pages Im sorry to say I never read the whole thing.

On the plus side, the graphics are generally strong, the sound effects very good, and the plot compelling.
